Kind of what I was waiting for…
It’s cool they could agree on something
Some of these guys had been good friends for decades before Nash and Crosby fell out with Neil
Personally CSNY is one of those bands I don’t get at all but their influence in the early 70s was huge… I was surprised reading Costello’s bio about how much he was into CSNY and the Band…same with Nick Lowe…those were their gods as young aspiring musicians

Did you see this poster I posted recently? It really shows the simultaneous breadth and insularity of 60s & 70s California rock.

Yeah that’s pretty great….
And it doesn’t even mention the Grateful Dead and Joni who both supposedly learned a lot about harmony singing from Crosby for two of my favorites: American Beauty and Blue
The Byrds really get short shift these days but they are the tree trunk for so much

One of the very few American bands with contemporaneous influence on The Beatles (plus The Beach Boys).

“Don’t leave, don’t abandon, don’t censor, engage,” Stewart said to Rogan’s critics on the latest episode of The Problem With Jon Stewart podcast. “I’m not saying it’s it’s always going to work out fruitfully, but I am always of the mindset that engagement, and especially with someone like a Joe Rogan who is not, in my mind, an ideologue in any way…
Stewart then said the rhetoric surrounding Rogan is “overblown.” “This overreaction to Rogan, I think is mistake,” Stewart said. “I really do.”

70 episodes of the JR podcast
It’s unclear why the episodes in question were pulled, and representatives for Rogan and Spotify did not respond to Rolling Stone‘s requests for comments. However, eagle-eyed fans of the controversial podcast on Reddit observed that many of the deleted episodes contained racial slurs, ableist language and other content that could be deemed insensitive. Users noted episodes featuring Tom Segura and Greg Fitzsimmons were likely removed for usage of the n-word. (The repeated usage of racially charged language on the_ Joe Rogan Experience _led singer-songwriter India Arie to pull her music from Spotify earlier this week.)
